Finally

After a month of discussions and consultations, we finally, finally, finally, accepted a referral for a little boy, M, in Ethiopia. The uncertainty and indecision was really beginning to weigh on me, but we have made it. I don't know what it is with us and international adoption, but it never goes smoothly. Luckily, we seem to make amazing contacts, an Ethiopian doctor here in the states who knew M's doctor in Addis Ababa who gave us first hand information about our little guy, to help get us through this crazy journey. M is 7 months old and his first few pictures remind me a lot of Yoni's first few pictures. We have already gotten about 15 pictures of him, plus a video, so it is very real. We are sending off this little bee to him tomorrow with a family that is travelling in a few weeks. Here is Yoni with the little bee that is going to ET and the monkey that we sent to him while we were waiting to travel. Next step, a court date BEFORE the courts close. We'll keep hoping!
